Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola says it was TOO SUNNY for his players during victory at Fulham.

City got off to a blistering start at Craven Cottage and ultimately ran out 2-0 winners thanks to goals from Bernardo Silva and Sergio Aguero.

Guardiola said: "This game was tricky - 12:30 on Saturday, a sunny day. That is unusual and that is why I am so satisfied."

And the Spaniard continued: "The first 15-20 minutes was incredible with the way we played.

"After the international break, you usually miss a bit with your rhythm, but the effort was there.

"We are going to do everything to win. No matter the next competition, we will win the game.

"Fulham was a tough game for Liverpool and Chelsea so we knew it was going to be tricky."
